Akris AW09
Showing in the Musee de L’Homme, press were not only treated to a spectacular view of the Eiffel Tower but also saw a luxurious Akris Fall / Winter collection. Inspired by Architect Tatiana Bilbao and the pavilion in the Jinhua Architecture Park in China, Albert Kriemler designed a collection that referenced broken linearity, trapezoids and 3d textures.
Silhouettes were elegantly sculptural and sensually fitted with a colour palette of grey, black, cinzano and highlights of purple. Fabrics included signature double faced cashmere, embroidery on silk tulle and a digitized skyline print on silk tulle.

Margaret Howell AW09 Men’s Presentation
On Sunday, Menswear editors were treated to a sneak preview of the first Margaret Howell store in Paris located in Place de la Madeleine.
The new store will be offering both men’s and women’s wear and is set to open on 7th February. The AW09 collection featured signature Margaret Howell of English fabrics combined with classic modern tailoring referencing heritage Margaret Howell throughout the mainline and MHL collections.
AW09 saw a strong military theme throughout with a colour palette of charcoal, slate blue and earthy tones. Shirting saw contrasting yokes and a move away from previous season’s stripes to checks and pea coats and duffel coats were key in outerwear.
